For a tutorial on how to install the drivers, click here.
A while back a friend of mine gave me an old smart card reader that was of no use to him; he had no need to use smart cards at home and the reader he gave me, a Schlumberger Reflex USB reader, had no support in 64-bit Windows 7, or so it seemed.
I cracked open the reader (didn’t take any effort, there are no screws nor snap-clips holding the case together) and found the internal part number: an SCM Microsystems SCR301 reader. Forcing Windows to use the SCM Microsystems SCR300 driver was successful in getting the reader to show up in Windows, meaning that I had a free, usable smart card reader to tinker around with. Awesome.
Update on June 20, 2013: Added a screenshot of the reader in Device Manager.
thanks for this

I’ve just created a new post that shows where the drivers are located, and how to install them. Windows should have these drivers already on your computer; no download should be needed.

So, I have a box with about 45 off these things brand new. Lol
No idea what they are for or what to do with them. I don’t want to put them for sale online if I can’t tell people what they do.
